Abstract:Oxygen fugacity (fO 2 ) is typically controlled in high P-T experiments by using solid state redox buffer assemblages. However, these are restricted to impose discrete fO 2 values often with significant gaps between neighbouring assemblages. Semi-permeable hydrogen membranes (Shaw 1963) are often used in internally heated pressure vessels for more flexible fO 2 control in hydrous experiments; however, their implementation in more widely available externally-heated pressure vessels have not yet gained space.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
